Nex - Campaign

After searching for an area less developed by adventure paths, I settled on Nex.

One messageboard post mentioned using Expedition to Greyhawk Ruins in Nex, and I liked the idea of using older modules.

So my campaign plot will go like this -

Temple of Elemental Evil - Replace the moathouse with a desert ruins. Place the temple itself on the edge of the Mana Wastes.

Instead of Zuggamatoy I will use one of Rovagug's many spawn.

After the temple they will be requested to aid villages in the western savannah from giant raids, leading into Against the Giants.

Not sure how I will link that to Greyhawk Ruins south of Quantium but i'll figure something out by then.

- During the 'moathouse' initial ruins the PCs ran into some scorpion-gnomes I call Ninazu. These were created by Nex as soldier-workers, but they were too obsessive so he banished them far beneath the surface years ago.

Hundreds of years later they have clawed their way to the surface and infect people with their eggs when they attack. They are subject to the Bleaching if they stop reforging the world into their amber-catacomb nest.

As the heroes travel and explore they will find a rising number of these Ninazu infestations and must deal with them, so they are the recurring foe and my reason why Serpentfolk haven't made a huge comeback in this areas underdark.

I may have the giants start raiding people as their own lands are under attack by the gnome-scorpion Ninazu.

So that's the short version, is all this feasable?

I have a campaign for nex/geb/mana wastes, though I went a differnt route. I think you have a good backbone there for your campaign.

Do tell....

I have a campaign outline on another thread called Rites of Passage. Basicly it starts in the past, during the war of Nex and Geb, players actions in that conflict then effect certain things for thier decendents. The decendents then start the game at level 1, as part of the harbringers, hand picked because of thier bloodline and its relation to certain prophecies.
